Damn too bad you didn't include the Moon River 2! I absolutely love that thing paired up with the Kinera Celest Plutus Beast, pure perfection. That dongle makes those hit pretty hard.
where is the FIIO KA11? 😂😂😂😂 That's what I partnered with the "ThieAudio Ghost" and man I easily fell in love with the Combo for the first time in my life I can finally appreciate my Music Library, FIIO KA11 was also phenomenal for CCA C12 IEM 🎉
is the audio player resampling the audio like most do on android. you can test this with a dac that has color coded sampling rate display. i simply use an ipad if using wired dac's for this reason as i stream music through a plex server running on my desktop.
Because it’s discontinued and now there are a million dual CS43198 dongles to replace it. It had its moment in the spotlight and changed the entire dongle game, but there isn’t much of a point in talking about it anymore when you can’t even buy one. Truthear should really come out with a Shio 2 and add selectable filters and improve the build quality if they want to get back into the market. But the money might be better in IEMs.
@@avedgy The Tanchjim Space uses the CS43131 chip, which has the same DAC as the Shio but with an integrated amplifier (hence the different model number for the chip). So it sounds very similar to the Shio, perhaps just a tad bit cleaner. And it is TINY. Same width as the Shio but 1.5cm shorter in length and 3mm shorter in height. You can also cycle through the filters by holding down both volume buttons for a couple seconds. The Space has ended up replacing my Shio as my daily.
